Stripe

A payment processor: it charges customers' cards for a business and pays the money out to the business's bank account.

What Stripe is

Written from its maker's own pages, read on 28 October 2026.

Stripe is a payment processor and financial services platform: a service that charges a customer's card or other payment method for a business and then pays the money out to the business. It supports more than 135 currencies and payment methods, online and in person.

A developer connects a website or app to Stripe through its API (an interface that another program calls over the internet), or uses prebuilt parts: Checkout, a ready-made payment page, and Link, a faster checkout for buyers who saved their details. Billing runs subscriptions, usage-based prices and invoices, set up through the API or the web Dashboard. Radar checks each payment for fraud with machine learning, and the business can add custom rules, for example against card testing (criminals who try many stolen card numbers with small charges). Revenue Recognition automates accounting entries, and Stripe Sigma runs custom reports on the account's data.

Stripe is a hosted service. Standard pricing is per transaction: a percentage plus a fixed fee for each successful card payment, with no setup fee and no monthly fee.
